I am removing the stock oil filter housing and oil cooler for a remote thermostat full flow system.
I have done my research and seen Jdub awesome thread. I still have a few concerns.
TSRM Bolt #15609G...is this the only bolt holding the oil filer housing to block? Any tips on removing this bolt. I sure am having trouble breaking this bolt loose. Whats the torque spec on this?...maybe its just seized?
Secondly, what needs to be done to the stock oil cooler return hose that leads into the oil pan? Remove the hose and use same bolt to plug hole? There is also what I think is transmission cooler hard line in the way of this bolt ead making it impossible to get a socket around.
Any help/suggestions/tips are more then welcome.
Thanks
